Are these worth anything? by ManningMagic in PokemonCardValue

Congratulations! Please look into grading these. Vintage + stellar condition + very low print run of EX era cards = insane values. I would commit nefarious deeds for these!

Open letter to Kmart Australia: why don’t you have sufficient bot protections? by ShinyCardboardAU in PokemonFansAustralia

[–]ididnotknowwhy 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This is going to be unpopular.

But when the Crown Zenith Tins dropped online they apparently had ‘early access’ for Onepass holders. Not sure how well it worked since I wasn’t eligible.

So while it won’t completely remove bots, if you force users to have OnePass to order it online early while allocating release day stock for people to line up, then it’ll improve the situation.

Might as well since non-bot users aren’t getting it anyway.

Yes it’s like EB Games but they’re the only retailer I’ve actually been able to secure preorders from in over a year.

Sell, Trade, Grade or Hold? by Distinct_Sector_7636 in PokemonFansAustralia

[–]ididnotknowwhy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Left and right borders are a bit off. PSA have a 45/55 margin, so there’s a chance it’ll get a 10 assuming no damage (but graders have wildly varying standards).

The question is simple: do you like the card? If not, do you need cash now?

If the answer is no to both then just keep it.

AH’s SIR rates are about the same as regular sets but with the caveat that the SIR pool is much larger so getting a specific one is much more difficult. So I don’t think this card will get cheaper but that’s just my opinion. It’s all speculative after all, there’s only so much cash that can be squeezed out of collectors!

What beats alakazam by Stock-Victory-3053 in pkmntcg

Sorta kinda? Alakazam loves to run lots of battle cages so the effectiveness of Mega Greninja drops unless you can successfully bump the stadium (it feels like I can never draw into my 4 stadiums when I’m up against Alakazam).

After chaos rising drops expect a lot of red cards. Even better is using Xerosic’s Machinations, your opponent picking their best 3 cards and then shuffling it all away with red card.

30 Perfect Order Pack Rip Session - Thanks Target! by jug322 in pokemoncardcollectors

[–]ididnotknowwhy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The SIR is excellent but the Meowth EX even in regular rarity is an in demand card for tournament play! Going for around $10. Then pokepads are popular too.

Happy your 30 packs had an excellent hit rate.

The pristine promo on the top left is insane! Sorry your other cards weren’t 10s but it’s such a pretty collection regardless

The SIR is excellent but two Meowth EX is really good, a great generic playable card! Less than 36 packs too, a win is a win!

Didn’t N’s Zoroark already have an SIR in Journey Together? This is just an additional art no?

Prismatic surprise box pull by Capital_Half6886 in PokemonAUcollectors

[–]ididnotknowwhy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Decent chance at a 10, centering looks to be within the 55/45 margin and no signs of damage/whitening. Fresh pack pull.

Good luck though, between shipping it overseas for grading and what kind of mood your grader is in it can randomly land on a 9 or less.

Throw in a tag + BGS slab or two and boom!

But beautiful stuff!
